To expect the timing of adoption and commercialization of green alternative fuel engines from the perspective of international shipping and explain the major roles of stakeholders related to alternative fuels in shipping
Fuel Type: Hydrogen
Key Issues in LCA Methodology for Marine Fuels
To highlight the impact of key considerations and methodological decisions when doing an LCA and demonstrate how these can impact the emissions attributed to different fuels
Energy Transition Outlook 2023 Transport in Transition: A deep dive into fuels, electricity, and infrastructure
To deeply analyze the transition of electrification, infrastructure, and fuel use in the transport sector for the next 30 years, focusing on fossi fuels, electricity, biofuels, hydrogen, and hydrogen-based fuels (e-fuels)
Cost of Regulatory Compliance Lower with LNG
To provide information on the impact of alternative fuels choice
Maritime Forecast to 2050
To analyze the current state of the shipping industry’s carbon emission reduction transition and the prospects for new technologies and stretegies, including ship design and fuel selection, necessary to achieve full net-zero
Commercial Readiness of Absolute Zero GHG Technologies
ZESTAs’ paper discusses findings from the MARIN NL Model for ESSF SAPS, which compares various marine fuels’ greenhouse gas emissions over a 100-year Global Warming Potential (GWP), noting that some fuels produce 0% emissions over this period. Only technologies reaching at least demonstration stage (TRL7 or higher) are considered. Additionally, references are made to Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) and Commercial Readiness Levels (CRLs) following expanded definitions presented to ISWG-GHG 14 by IMO Secretariat, DNV, and Ricardo plc on 22nd March 2023.
Potential of Hydrogen as Fuel for Shipping
To identify the potential for adopting hydrogen as a marine fuel by examining the production capacity, the regulatory landscape, and technologies along with techno-economic analyses and risk-based case studies
Economic value of methanol for shipping under fuelEU maritime and EU ETS
To evaluate the economic viability of bio-methanol and e-methanol as sustainable marine fuels within the regulatory frameworks of FuelEU Maritime and the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS). The report provides an analysis of compliance pathways and the economic incentives for adopting these fuels compared to fossil fuels such as VLSFO, emphasizing the penalties for non-compliance. The findings support the potential of these regulations to facilitate a transition to sustainable fuels by creating a stable investment environment for fuel producers and encouraging adoption by shipping operators.
Oceans of Opportunity
To explain the impact of green methanol and ammonia and propose the implementation of zero-emission fuel bunkering at ports by 2030
Analysis on interaction of CII with GFS: Calibrating IMO energy efficiency and fuels targets
To recommend effective strategies for the shipping sector to achieve the IMO emission reduction targets
